With only weeks left until from Wicked: For Good hits theaters, fans have something else to fill the Wicked void.

Puma just dropped a Wicked-themed collection, transforming some of their most popular apparel into Oz-themed clothes for kids and adults that you can shop on the brand’s website now. The collection includes decorative hoodies, tees and updated Speedcat styles all imbued with the spirit of Wicked magic.

If you’re looking to get into the spirit ahead of the new movie, or just a great gift for Wicked-obsessed fans, friends and family members for the holiday season, well, you’re in the right place. We’ll be breaking down a few of our favorites from the collaboration, covering everything from pricing and material to styling. Keep reading to shop Puma’s new Wicked collection.

The Speedcat is a Puma silhouette rooted in athleticism. Initially created for Formula 1 drivers, the silhouette is aerodynamic and flexible, a performance style that was made exceedingly wearable via this collaboration. The two traditional Speedcat silhouettes, both retailing for $110, now have designs inspired by Elphaba and Glinda.

The Glinda-inspired silhouette called Goodness is a dreamy lilac hue accompanied by truly whimsical touches like sheer ribbon trim and bubble embroidery, making the shoe look just as light and airy as it feels on the foot. The speedy striping on the side of this style is an iridescent hue, reminiscent of the look of the bubbles Glinda floats in. On the flipside, you’ve got the Elphaba style, aptly called Elphie, which is a moody black with emerald green accents. The uppers feature a floral-esque crushed velvet fabric, imparting textural interest.

The Speedcat is insanely comfortable and casual thanks to the low-profile design, meaning you can style it in a myriad of ways. The themed design also makes both silhouettes a stand-out. Plus, for a collaborative piece, the price tag is not bad, considering regular Puma Speedcat styles are usually around the same price. Great for holiday gift-giving, either or style is a must-have, especially for the major Wicked fan in your life.

Another Speedcat model, but this time in ballet flat form. It’s the Speedcat Ballet Silver Slippers, paying homage to Dorothy Gale’s footwear in The Wizard of Oz, which, if you didn’t know by now, was originally silver, not ruby red. Retailing for $90, this style comes in sizes for women and kids and features metallic outsoles, sparkling straps and textured embroidery throughout.

This style sort of reminds us of the Tin Man, what with all the silver. Metallic footwear is becoming exceedingly popular, especially as we get into the colder months. Ballet flats have also gotten extremely popular, especially as people are shifting away from heeled items for something way more comfortable. We can see this shoe translating well to outfits at the office or a casual trip to grab coffee. Why not get ahead of the trend and snag these today?  

The women’s Goodness hoodie is a hero piece from the collection. What we mean by that is it’s one of the more eye-catching styles and one we think people will be snatching up left and right. Retailing for $100, this hoodie comes in sizes XS to XL and features that same lilac hue seen on Glinda’s Speedcat sneakers.

The piece is cropped and affixed with baggy arms that are equipped with a delicate ballet-inspired lace-up design that we just know Glinda would love. The front and back of the hoodie are affixed with Puma x Wicked co-branding, including a striking crown design. The sleeves have subtle butterfly detailing, a common Glinda motif. As we get into the colder seasons, this hoodie is sure to come in handy. While it is cropped, the boxy composition makes it super cozy. The hoodie is also made of a fleece material that helps keep the cold at bay, so you’ll be looking cute and warm all winter long.

Puma knows how to make a great graphic tee, and this Oz tee is no exception. Retailing for $50, the shirt currently comes in sizes XS to XXL. The piece is slightly boxy and made of soft, easy to wash and breathable cotton fabric, great if you get hot easily (no shame). The front of the tee features Puma x Wicked graphics with pops of pink and green throughout.

Above the graphic, flying monkeys hover, looking as if they’re guarding the graphic from harms way. To give it a lived-in look, the tee includes a washed design, mimicking the look of the well-loved tees you might find at a vintage store. All in all, this is a classic silhouette with subtle nods to the film. Styled with your favorite denim and a bomber jacket overtop, you’ll be ready to sit in theaters before long. If you’re in the market for a new t-shirt and you don’t want to spend tons on a perfectly distressed style, this tee is for you.

Finally, we have the Oz Fleece Hoodie, another ultra-cozy piece retailing for $100. Current sizing runs from XXS to XXL. As mentioned, this hoodie is made of a cozy fleece material that insulates the wearer, especially if you get damp from the snow or rain we’re bound to have in the thick of fall. While this hoodie is marketed for men, it can easily be unisex, much like the other items in this collection. The style is an emerald green, a nod to the Emerald City, with pink accents.

The front of the hoodie reads, “The Wizard sees everything,” a slightly ominous Oz-inspired graphic that we can’t help but fangirl over. Like the t-shirt before it, this hoodie also has a distressed wash, giving it that lived-in look without all the effort. This hoodie is another great option if you haven’t prepped your closet for the colder months yet. It’ll certainly keep you warm and stylish too. The colorway also screams Wicked, perfect for your next watch party or theater experience.

Following the box office success that was Wicked in 2024, Wicked: For Good hits theaters on Friday, Nov. 21, just one day shy of the one-year anniversary of the film’s first half. The sequel was first announced on X in April by director Jon M. Chu’s “OzPhone.” The filmmaker wrote at the time, “With more space, we can tell the story of Wicked as it was meant to be told while bringing even more depth and surprise to the journeys of these beloved characters.”
